MFC >> Filter for open/save dialog as resource string

Hi all!

How can I put a filter for open/save dialog (you know, like "Text Files
(*.txt)\0*.txt\0All Files (*.*)\0*.*\0\0") in the *.rc file? I can't seem to
get my zeroes to go through...

Thanks, Goran.

MFC >> Filter for open/save dialog as resource string Use |. If you are using CFileDialog, it automatically converts the | characters to NUL
bytes.

Yes, it works! I tried what you said before, but I assigned my filter
directly to m_ofn, after CFileDialog ctor. This does not work ('|'
characters remain), because '|' to '\0' replacement is done in the
constructor. Good one!
